I'm a mathematics professor. Taught for seven years in the high school, and moved on to college. This is just my second year, but I'm enjoying the heck out of it.

Algebra is entertaining

Trigonometry and calculus are just bananas

Maths are easy! Few have suicide trying to solve fermat's last theorem

You got to love it.

Still trying to formulate and solve the odds of those using the sticky 10W40 oils and putting 11" wide wheels on their Boxster. I'm a begginer
